Discussion Failure to Thrive (FTT) is defined as persistent weight below the 3rd percentile for age in infants and young children. The associated terms “Failure to gain weight” (FGW) or “Lack of Normal Physiologic Growth and Development” are more precise, especially for children who are not below the 3rd percentile but are losing weight over time and/or crossing percentile lines on their growth curve. For general growth parameters see How Do I Calculate Mid-Parental Height and Other Growth Parameters? About 70-80% of FTT cases have psychosocial problems that are associated with the FTT or the primar...

Low prevalence of glucose intolerance in racially mixed children with cystic fibrosisemail this articleEmail this article to a colleague. save this article to My ClippingsSave this article to My Clippings. discuss this articleDiscuss or comment on this article.
Conclusions: The low prevalence of carbohydrate intolerance in this population is probably a result of their young age. Another possibility is the low frequency of the [Delta]F508 mutation. Although not conclusive, these data suggest that in addition to age, the genotype:phenotype ratio may influence the development of glucose intolerance in patients with CF.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa Cystic Fibrosis isolates of similar RAPD genotype exhibit diversity in biofilm forming ability in vitro.email this articleEmail this article to a colleague. save this article to My ClippingsSave this article to My Clippings. discuss this articleDiscuss or comment on this article.
Conclusions: Clinical isolates that do not produce biofilms in the laboratory must have the ability to survive in the patient lung. We propose that a synergy exists between isolates in vivo, which allows "non biofilm-forming" isolates to be incorporated into the biofilm. Therefore, there is the potential for strains that are apparently non-biofilm forming in vitro to participate in biofilm-mediated pathogenesis in the CF lung. (Source: BioMed Central)

Transforming Growth Factor {beta}1 Inhibits Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator-dependent cAMP-stimulated Alveolar Epithelial Fluid Transport via a Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase-dependent Mechanism [Cell Biology]email this articleEmail this article to a colleague. save this article to My ClippingsSave this article to My Clippings. discuss this articleDiscuss or comment on this article.
Exogenous or endogenous β2-adrenergic receptor agonists enhance alveolar epithelial fluid transport via a cAMP-dependent mechanism that protects the lungs from alveolar flooding in acute lung injury. However, impaired alveolar fluid clearance is present in most of the patients with acute lung injury and is associated with increased mortality, although the mechanisms responsible for this inhibition of the alveolar epithelial fluid transport are not completely understood. Here, we found that transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1), a critical mediator of acute lung injury, inhibits β2-adrenergic receptor a...

You are asked to pay a house visit to a young boy whose medical history includes cerebral palsy, cystic fibrosis, diabetes, food allergies, and intolerance to sunlight. However, on examination, you can find nothing wrong with him. On returning to the surgery, you follow-up with the numerous consultants at the various hospitals where the boy attends. They are also baffled. The only common feature is the mother's insistence that the boy is very ill. In this tragic but true case of child maltreatment, which received wide publicity in the UK recently, doctors involved in the boy's management concluded that there was little wro...

Conclusions: This work demonstrates the importance of feasibility studies in preparation for multicentre clinical trials.

It showed that a clinical trial was feasible, but only if patients were recruited from across United Kingdom. (Source: Trials)

In this qualitative study the researchers explored living with cystic fibrosis (CF)—a chronic, life-threatening, life-limiting disease that demands a relentless regime of daily treatment. The unique challenges and issue for care that CF presents were considered. Utilizing a phenomenological perspective, data drawn from unstructured interviews included narratives and drawings contributed by children, adolescents, young adults, and parents—eight families representing nine young people with CF. In line with van Manen’s approach, four existentials were used to consider a lifeworld in which notions of time, bo...
